We have launched a new eService for employment agencies to renew, cancel and extend work permit for FDWs. These transactions for FDWs will no longer be available in WPOL.

Work Permit Online for businesses and employment agencies

Work Permit Online (WP Online) allows business employers and employment agencies to perform Work Permit transactions, such as applying, issuing and renewing a Work Permit. For all online applications, 98% are processed by the next working day.

Registration is free. You can sign up for a WP Online account if you are:

A business owner. You must be a Singapore citizen, Singapore permanent resident or an EntrePass holder.

An employee of a registered business. You must be a Singapore citizen or Singapore permanent resident.

A foreign employee of a registered business. You must hold an Employment Pass, Personalised Employment Pass (PEP), or S Pass.

During registration, an administrator (admin user) has to be appointed, and this person should preferably be the business owner, a director or a senior employee.

The administrator can add another administrator (total 2) and up to 4 users. Having a second administrator is advisable to minimise disruption should one administrator leave your organisation or is not available.

You can apply for a WP Online account as an employment agency to transact on behalf of your clients.

The administrator must be a registered key appointment holder or employment agency personnel.

The administrator can add another administrator (total 2) and up to 4 users. Having a second administrator is advisable to minimise disruption if one administrator leave your organisation or is not available.
